The “Manbou Tunnel” was featured on NHK’s “Document 72 Hours” last year, appears in a novel by Junichiro Tanizaki, and is said to have been a place Aimyon often passed through.

A townscape walking event will be held around these “Manbou Tunnels,” which have long been loved by Nishinomiya locals from the past to the present〜😄
